Male Viera as a playable character! show your support

[Theodric]

I mean lets not lie and say it wasn't hugely a part of this thread that made Yoshi actually come out and stomp his foot down on peoples desire to have a child like Viera. There were certainly, for a while, a loud vocal group who wanted to be weird with Viera and they left such a bad taste in the mouths of so many people that many decided they didn't want male Viera at all because of it.

Now because that was snuffed out, there's a group who are begging for what are basically... well, female models. And if they want them to be so feminine, I don't understand why they don't just make a female character. At least that group is starting to get snuffed out too by others who still want the viera to not be a circus show.

Yeah, that definitely scared off a lot of people who would have otherwise supported their inclusion. I'm hoping that they'll be designed in such a way as to appeal to a broad range of players.

My biggest desire at the moment is to see an expansion of the customisation for the existing playable races, however. I can wait patiently for male viera but people have been waiting a lot longer for things like the highlander male eyebrow situation to be resolved.
